Equipment

  • 4 mini loaf tins or similar
  • Aluminium foil
  • mandolin or food processor
  • sharp knife
  • Cheese grater

Ingredients
 
 

  • 900 g potatoes
  • 300 ml double cream heavy
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg grated
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 50 g butter
  • 100 g cheddar strong/mature

Instructions
 

  • Slice the potatoes thinly and place in large bowl.
  • Add the cream, seasoning and nutmeg and stir well to combine.
  • Grease the baking tins, put them on an oven tray and divide the potato mixture between them.
  • Divide the butter and dot on top of the potatoes.
  • Cover the tins in foil and bake in the oven at 180C/160FAN/350F/Gas4 for 30 minutes.
